HKD2000 is an excellent rate for a harbor view room. If you have status, make sure to contact them before booking to make sure they will honor benefits on the F&F rate (benefits are not supposed to be given on this rate, but many hotels do grant them anyway.)

Free club due to hotel resv error
This is the story.
While I was still Amb back to late April, I used BOGOF for weekend night stay.
Called hotel for ADV Reservation rate and book harbour view and upgrade to superior Jr. Suite.
A few hours later, an agent called me back and told me that I cannot use ADV rate for BOGO weekend cert.
I explained to her I was using old coupon and there is no such restriction.
Finally, to avoid all confusion, she asked me to accept her apology and will give me club access + USD 250 dining credit/stay if I can change to best flex rate (around HKD 200 more/night).
This is the only time I got club access and really a good club.

HK IC Pricing
I am forward planning to Feb 2011, Looking at booking the HK IC (Not GS).
Looking at basic room rates there is nearly 1000HKD difference between booking a room in July 2010 and Feb 2011 (Feb being more expensive).
Does anyone know if the rates 'far' in advance reduce as date gets closer or is this a season thing? Can't believe HK is more expensive in feb than July, also rate increases nearly every month from now until Jan 2011.
Thanks

What up grade should I expect?
I am a gold ambassador and have booked a 6 night stay at the IC Grand Stanford. Booked a King Club Harbour View room. What type of room should I expect? When should the upgrade show on the reservation? Will it show on the reservation?
Thanks for the help.
Thanks for the help.

maybe FEB increase is related to CNY holiday?

I doubt they'll give you a harbour view suite. Maybe they'll try to give you a city view suite or rather lower your rate (e.g. comp club access)...IC HK GS upgrades show on your account - at least for me (RA) - the next day.

That being said, room rates in Hong Kong have steadily been rising over the last half year or so...

The Stay and Dine rate has been mentioned a few times. However, what I now found out (well, it is on the hotel's webpage) is that a suite booking gives you 300 USD restaurant credit instead of 150 USD.
So booking the cheapest Junior Suite for two nights appeared to be good idea to me. I did so and got a two category upgrade to an Executive Suite with full harbour view and one of the best stocked minibars I have seen.
The rate difference between a Superior Junior Suite and a Deluxe Harbour View Room was about 900 HKD per night, a total of about 280 USD. Considering the higher restaurant credit this was quite a cheap investment in a really spectactular room.

I am a bit confused, if I book Superior JR. Suite, then I cannot use BOGO coupon? And if I book highest non suite, which I guess is Dlx Harbour Room, then I can use BOGO, plus HKD 300 dining credit? Since I will be upgrade to a suite room?
Sorry if my question is a bit stupid.
